I called him out as a blood yesterday. I saw the blood tattoo on his arm, and you figure with his rumored gang affiliation you put 2 + 2 together.

What an idiot. You're a millionaire football player and you're gonna be a blood. Moron. Now it's starting to make sense. Why else would a football player have "issues" with another group of men? Why would he feel so betrayed by his "friend" for talking to those people? Why was Lloyd so afraid of being with him that night?

Why was the guy who got shot in the face so afraid to cooperate with authorities when it first happened?

Let this be a lesson to all aspiring thugs from moderately well to do neighborhoods. When choosing a school, you have to consider the academics. If Hernandez had not gone to Florida and instead gone to Thug U, he would have known how to properly kill someone and get away with it.

Sadly, how it appears he acts, only cements his "cred." In my opinion, it's becoming much more common to live by the street code.

It's a huge cultural (NOT RACE) thing right now. I speak to youth every day who swear that you get more respect the "harder" you are.

I hear the same thing too.
And what's reeediculous is that they think they get more respect, but who's the respect coming from?
Nobody who really matters in the end.

What about respect from the academic community, or the work place, or church, etc.
Is this a sign of the times?

Aaron Hernandez, the former NFL tight end charged with murder in the death last week of an acquaintance, is now being investigated in connection with a double homicide in Boston's South End in July 2012, a law enforcement source close to the investigation told CNN.

The source gave no indication whether there was any connection between that investigation and Hernandez's current murder charge.

What is known is that the Boston Police Department has located and impounded a silver SUV with Rhode Island registration that police have been trying to find for almost a year, which is linked to the scene of a double homicide in 2012, the source said.

Investigators believe that Hernandez was renting the SUV at the time of those killings, the source said.

(Hernandez reportedly will be sued for shooting man in face)

A second man arrested in connection with the killing of Odin Lloyd is also expected to appear before a judge.

Carlos Ortiz was arrested in Bristol, Connecticut, on Wednesday and will have an initial hearing in Attleboro, Massachusetts, District Court as early as Thursday, a source with knowledge of the investigation told CNN.

This is why I respect the Pats and hate my team. We still have Josh Brent on the roster who killed a teammate, has been smoking weed ever since and failing drug test, yet we still want to be affiliated with him even though he is a marginal talent. Then Ratliff gets a DUI months later, and we keep him too.

Pats released a 23 year old cornerstone of their offense and eat a good chunk of cash to boot. I would love to be a fan of a football team like that, and I knew this was likely early on whether he was charged or not because this is seemingly how the Pats work. Asking what would have happened if it was Brady is just a stupid question.
